Good oil, the engine starts perfectly at -35, doesn't burn off. Engine 11183 Kalina 1.6. In summer I use semi-synthetic 10-40. Also doesn't burn off, I change it every 6-7 thousand km.

This will be my 3rd replacement of this motor oil. I use it for the Logan 1.2 and I'm satisfied. But I noticed that the canisters here lack a sticker, while genuine Shell comes with a QR code that can be verified online. Make sure to pay attention to this. I almost ordered it online at a cheaper price... Fortunately, a friend advised me. I change the oil every 10,000 km, and everything's fine with the engine.
Approval and official endorsement RN 0700/RN 0710 is the protective code on the canister.
you might encounter a counterfeit, so always check the code on the canister.
